Set between rainforest mountains and the Inside Passage, Juneau makes apartment hunting straightforward. Most rentals cluster along Egan Drive—the main corridor connecting Downtown, Lemon Creek, the Mendenhall Valley, and Auke Bay. Capital Transit buses cruise this route throughout the day, getting you to the Alaska State Capitol, waterfront cruise docks, Juneau International Airport, and the Auke Bay ferry terminal without hassle. Snag an apartment near Mendenhall Glacier if you want trails at your doorstep, or find a place by the Mount Roberts Tramway for quick access to shops, fresh seafood, and hiking.
Downtown Juneau delivers walkable blocks packed with historic buildings, the State Capitol, Mount Roberts Tramway, museums, bars, and seafood spots, plus the Perseverance Trail just minutes away. Douglas and West Juneau, right across the bridge, serve up channel views, Sandy Beach, the Treadwell Mine Historic Trail, and an easy drive to Eaglecrest Ski Area. The Mendenhall Valley brings everyday convenience near the glacier and Nugget Falls Trail, with shopping around Nugget Mall. Auke Bay revolves around the harbor and University of Alaska Southeast, offering coffee shops, charter boats, and the nearby ferry terminal. Lemon Creek works as a practical midpoint with warehouse stores, the Alaskan Brewing Company tasting room, and quick access to both Downtown and the Valley.
